The Premiership champions are a club synonymous with money and success. but,
only two years ago, life at stamford bridge was very different


There were the new changing rooms, transformed from the grotty, unhygienic
places I had once known into black slate, five-star masterpieces complete with
Molton Brown toiletries. And then out in the tunnel, it was the line-up of new
players in blue shirts. I looked at the faces and realised I knew only four of
them personally from my time there.


I played for Chelsea for six years before joining Blackburn Rovers in 1993,
and when I returned to Stamford Bridge in 1997 I was excited about the
potential of the club, the players and the manager. Unfortunately, what would
hold us back was that little had changed at Harlington, our miserable training
headquarters down by Heathrow airport. It was the kind of training ground that
could change a sunny mood into a dark one as soon as you drove through the
gates. The pitches were dreadful, the changing facilities poor and, worst of
all, the grounds didn't even belong to the club. We shared it with a London
university and because it wasn't private land, anyone could wander in.

舊的訓練場真的爛的不行,難怪0304賽季常聽到誰誰又在訓練場上受傷,

還有硬體設備的不足,左拉大叔甚至計畫帶頭球員們之間集資改善硬體設備........

非常喜歡這篇文章,揭露球隊和球員不為人知的一面,謝謝Le Saux大叔.
